Deep in the valley Deep in the daydream Can't find your way? Turn back the way you came Like a fistful of sand into the breeze, sewing up the sky, polishing the sea From your fingertips down to your feet Hold out your hands--beg now plead Into the valley low Into the winter cold When you were young you felt so bold A long lifetime ago Into the darkened years Your shadow disappears The path back home was overgrown A long lifetime ago Deep in the blank gaze Deep in the sunrise In the morning light you don't look so certain now The future came and went in a limousine You're standing in the stench of gasoline From your fingertips down to your feet Hold out your hands--beg now plead Into the valley low Into the winter cold When you were young you felt so bold A long lifetime ago Into the darkened years Your shadow disappears The path back home was overgrown A long lifetime ago
